cas-ual fridays 87 and a farewell


It's time for another challenge at CAS-ual Fridays and this week we want you to 'make your mark' by using markers on your card or project! Our sponsor this week is Crafters Companion and they are offering a great Spectrum Noir prize :)

Lets look at my project first:




I white heat embossed my favourite flower from the Truth Is set and coloured with my markers before collaging a collection of dies with a partially stamped sentiment from the Casual Elegance set. The panel was mounted over patterned paper. 

Now onto my news. It is with a heavy heart that I have made the decision to step down from a couple of my Design Teams and so this will be my last CAS-ual Fridays Post :) A combination of new opportunities and my need to be with family at the moment has dictated that I had to come to the hard decision to step down. My card today is for Michele and the CAS-ual Fridays team. Michele, thank you for the opportunity to be on your design team during the exciting release of your new company and to the wonderful team of girls who have inspired me week on week - you are terrific :)

Supplies: Stamps - CAS-ual Fridays Stamps truth is, casual elegance; Inks - Versamark, Versafine smoky gray; Card - Papertrey Ink soft stone, Stampin' Up naturals white, rose red, silver glitter; Paper - My Mind's Eye indie chic ginger, Simple Stories sn@p color vibe; Dies - Simon Says Stamp large hearts s143, you s146, holiday shapes s131; Hero Arts white embossing powder; Stampin' Up rhinestones; Copic markers RV10, RV11, RV19, O

    You and your card are terrific, Debby. Love it!

    It's a pitty that you decided to step down as a DT member of CAS-ual Fridays. But I will keep following your blog, because your work is so inspiring!

    Good luck,
    Judith
